place. This will simplify matters some
what but it seems pity that third money
should go begging, as the club il wealthy
and well able to stand tho expense.
Birds are reported to be very abundant
on the club grounds, and nearly all Of
them arc well grown. There has been n
great deal Of rain here and the ground is
in splendid condition for the dogs. and we
shall probably see some capital work. The
principal interest appears TO be manifested
in the Derby. There is very fine entry
for this stake, nearly all OF the best blood
in the country being represented. Ii is
impossible to tell at this time how many
starters there will be, but from what
have been able 10 learn it is safe to say
that the winner will have no easy task to
get there. The All-Agcd stakes win also be
quite interesting, as there are several dark
horses that may surprise some OF the
knowing ones. The Champion stake makes
perhaps as much talk as any, and il the
dogs that are entered go all right, it will
truly be battle OF the giants.

thirteen of the Memphis 4 Avent kennels
